This is classic Pierre Franey and excellent, though it takes at least an hour, not 30 minutes. I used a Granny Smith apple and pine nuts rather than almonds, but I can't imagine it could be more delicious. I served it with roasted cauliflower, the simplicity of which was welcome given the complexity of this dish.
